| A big water rat (nutria) was about to climb out of the water until it detected the presence of a large yellow kayak at which point it decided to go under water. |

| Cardinals were eating the berries off what might be a black tupelo tree. |

| Popcorn trees are beginning to show their fall colors. |
 |
| A great egret with its huge feet rests comfortably on a single limb. |
 |
| It is the white bird that has neither black feet or yellow feet that I have a hard time trying to identify. According to bird books, both a juvenile little blue heron and a morph of a reddish egret can also be white. Note the color the of the legs and face. Anyone know how to tell whether it is a heron or egret when they are at this stage? |
 |
| The eyes of this cat were intensely fixated on the nose of the kayak in a way that indicated it had never seen a kayak before. It was a comical moment. |
